Does tinnitus occur during menopause?

Tinnitus is a common disease. Menopausal women also suffer from tinnitus, which is rarely known. Authoritative experts emphasize that once women reach menopause, they will experience many side effects, such as: palpitations, chest tightness, irritability, headaches, tinnitus, etc. Therefore, women should pay more attention to tinnitus during menopause.

Causes of tinnitus in women during menopause

1. Work pressure. In recent years, the incidence of tinnitus among Chinese white-collar workers has continued to rise. Tinnitus is not only common among senior executives of companies, but many young office workers are also troubled by tinnitus, which manifests as high-frequency tinnitus, similar to the sound of cicadas. Tinnitus occurs in young and middle-aged people (especially office workers) mainly due to too much work pressure, lack of sleep and too much social interaction.

2. Unstable mentality. Tinnitus is likely to occur in groups with bad tempers. Tinnitus symptoms are often more severe in people with anxiety and depression tendencies. An unstable mentality can cause tinnitus, and conversely, persistent tinnitus will aggravate mental instability.

3. Long-term noise exposure. The loudest sound that hearing can withstand is generally 90 decibels. If it exceeds this level, even if you don't feel it, the delicate and sensitive ear canal has been damaged. Irregular and highly stimulating noise can cause greater damage to English hearing. The sound intensity in dance halls, discos and amusement halls often exceeds 115 decibels. It is easy to cause tinnitus if you are often in such an environment.

4. Caused by non-source disease. In addition to ear diseases, other diseases may also cause tinnitus. Vascular diseases are also one of the factors that cause tinnitus, such as jugular vein glomeruloma, dilatation of small capillaries in the ear, vascular malformations, hemangiomas, etc. Systemic diseases can also cause tinnitus, such as autonomic nervous system disorder (autonomic nervous system disorder production vaccine: a syndrome in which a part of the body's endocrine system is temporarily imbalanced due to psychological and social factors, and related neuroendocrine changes occur without corresponding pathological changes in tissue structure), cerebral blood supply is insufficient, diabetes, and malnutrition. Therefore, in order to eliminate tinnitus, the body needs to be treated in time when it feels unwell, so as to avoid causing other diseases, which will be more troublesome to treat.

5. Endocrine imbalance. Menopausal women often complain of tinnitus, but hearing tests are normal. In addition to tinnitus, they will continue to experience some bizarre symptoms, such as tinnitus when they touch the auricle hard or tap the scalp gently with their hands. At present, it is believed that endocrine imbalance, estrogen reduction and autonomic nervous system dysfunction in menopausal women are the main causes of tinnitus.

6. Caused by ear diseases. Ear diseases are the key cause of tinnitus. Ear diseases such as external ear canal disease, external otitis, acute inflammation inside the ear, and periosteum rupture can all cause tinnitus. Excessive use of drugs that have toxic side effects on the ears, such as penicillin, streptomycin or kanamycin, can also cause tinnitus and hearing loss. Tinnitus occurs earlier than hearing loss. Therefore, you should pay attention to your health on a daily basis and seek timely treatment if you have ear diseases.

7. The natural environment in daily life and work: The working environment of many wage earners is too messy, with the roar of equipment in the workshop, the knocking sounds of workers, and some other noises. In short, there is no moment of peace in the working environment, which will cause great damage to our auditory nerves over time, which is one of the main causes of tinnitus.

8. Ear diseases: In our daily life, we sometimes accidentally cause damage to our ears. If these injuries are not handled promptly or poorly, they may lay the foundation for the occurrence of tinnitus. If you use too many ear medicines, it may also cause tinnitus.
